So recently I bought 5 more 30 round magazine's for my M&P AR.
I felt like I didn't have enough ammo so I went to a gun show Sat
and bought some more. Of course prices are crazy but I've been
looking for the last 6 months. So I least I feel better about all my
different ammo stock piles......for now anyway. 

I did get out yesterday and plink off 90 rounds of the .556
and 45 rounds on my Glock 43x

That was $1.00 per round.

Yes I know ...
1 1/2 years ago I paid 33 cents a round.

that's a nice one I had not seen.
odd , I was ,just yesterday , compelled for no reason to think a little target / fun .22l pistol might be cool. I went down the Ruger Wrangler variant . I'd imagine your new one is likely higher quality ; it looks it w that sweet blueing

Bud's had a Ruger .22LR revolver for $199  Might buy one just cuz.  I have about 3500 rounds of .22LR.  One brick of 500 rounds has a price tag on it of $8.99 - HTF old is that?!

I looked at both but I liked the spider carved in the handle AND I just wanted to spend less.

My nephew is a fireman and he says Academy gets ammo on
certain days. When he gets off a 24 hr shift he will go and get
in line one of those mornings to buy ammo. He says the line is
getting longer every time.
